Shulbank-Smith 2 “Brushing Up Your Shakespeare”: An Overview of Shakespeare and the American Musical Theater The American musical is a specific genre that developed from a long history of opera, drama, minstrel shows, and various other art forms. Denny Flinn provides a definition: “The American book musical, then, is a drama – or tragedy, comedy, or farce – presented through the elements of dialogue, lyrics, and dance all woven together to create the seamless presentation of a story” (xiv). The most important element of this description is the word seamless. The incorporation of song, dance, and scenes to form a cohesive, integrated whole is what established the true advent of the American musical in 1927, with Hammerstein and Kern’s Showboat. From Showboat through the 60s, the Golden Age musical was the most common form on Broadway.

  • Twelfth Night
    TWELFTH NIGHT by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE ~ Sponsored by National Westminster Bank PLC C ..,j ' lRE QUESTORS 1R64TRE COMA First performance June 12th 1982 First performance at the Minack Theatre July 12th 1982 DIRECTOR'S NOTE: Although the date of the first performance of Twelfth Night is uncertain, it was probably written in 1600 - 1. Leslie Hotson's theory that it was written in honour of Virginie Orsino, Duke of Bracciano, on the occasion of his visit to the Court of Queen Elizabeth in 1601, is ingenious but not generally accepted, although it is true that Shakespeare's company, the Lord Chamber­ lain's Men, were appearing at court on Twelfth Night, 1601, the day on which the Queen entertained the young Orsino. The first clear reference to Twelfth Night comes in the diary of John Manningham, in the entry for 2nd February 1602: 'At our feast wee had a play called 'Twelve Night, or What You Will', much like the Comedy of Errores, or Menechmi in Plautus, but most like and neeere to that in Italian called lnganni.' The ultimate source of the play is, indeed, G/'lngannati (The Deceived Ones) an Italian play first performed in 1531, although Shakespeare almost certainly found the story in Barnabe Riche's prose tale of Apolonius and Silla, one of the eight 'histories' forming Riche his Farewell to Militarie Profession, published in 1581. Whatever the date and whatever the source, Twelfth Night has remained consistently one of Shakespeare's most popular plays. Leonard Digges, writing some commendatory verses about Shake- speare in 1640, said: ' .
